18/10/2018 - Recommissioning of Domestic Abuse Support Service for Herefordshire ref: 5394 Recommendations Approved
To approve the approach to recommissioning of a domestic abuse support service and the outline of a new Domestic Abuse Strategy for Herefordshire.
The commissioned domestic abuse support service provided by West Mercia Women's Aid is due to conclude in March 2019. This report details the intention to commission a redesigned domestic abuse service from April 2019 and provides an outline of the revised domestic abuse strategy for Herefordshire.
A shared strategic vision and set of priorities across agencies is required to tackle the root causes and consequences of domestic abuse, which is a complex, pan-organisational challenge. Within this, specialist services for victims and their children who seek support is vital to minimise harm and maximise positive outcomes, focussed on safety, building resilience and empowerment. A commissioned service is required which prevents the needs of victims and their children from escalating. The service will provide a single point of contact and access to experienced professionals who understand the risks and challenges faced by victims, assisting them to locate the right services and information to meet their needs.
Prevention, early intervention and co-ordination of support is key to prevent the risk and level of need from escalating and ultimately costing more to organisations across the system.

Decision published: 16/10/2018
Effective from: 16/10/2018
Decision:
Summary of exempt proceedings.
Following a full discussion of the complaint which included information provided via confidential papers and verbally from the subject member and the complainant.
The panel commented that Councillor Kenyon was not the only councillor on the planning and regulatory committee who may have had a close personal association with the person concerned. Councillor Kenyon’s association only came to light because of his open behaviour in discussing their shared charitable interests. The panel stressed that there was no “inappropriate contact” but felt that the term within the planning code did need to be clearly defined for the benefit of all councillors. The panel also felt that the term “close personal association” contained with the code of conduct also needed to be clearly defined, again for the benefit of all councillors.
The panel made the following recommendations on the issues raised in this complaint.:
RESOLVED
THAT
· Guidance as to what close personal association (contained within the Herefordshire Council Code of Conduct) needs to be provided by officers so that all councillors were aware
· Guidance as to what inappropriate contact (contained within the Herefordshire Council planning code) to be provided by officers so that all councillors were aware.
· it is made clear to anyone subject to a code of conduct complaint, what the process is, rules, and possible outcomes.
· officers make improvements in the process for collecting evidence on complaints.
· the chairperson for this panel write to all Herefordshire Council chairpersons and in particular to the chairperson of Planning and Regulatory Committee drawing attention to the need to declare interests where appropriate.
DECISION
The panel upheld the decision of the deputy monitoring officer and found that Councillor J Kenyon, Herefordshire Council, had breached standard B1 in the code of conduct in failing to declare and resolve his interests in accordance with the law and provisions of this code of conduct.
REASONS
The reasons were based on the fact that Cllr Kenyon:
· had described the person as a friend; and
· was involved in the charities he supported when mayor
The sanction of this panel is that Councillor Kenyon receive advice from the monitoring officer to improve understanding of when interests can arise and when to declare them.

11/10/2018 - Consideration of controls to restrict parking on grass verges and pathways ref: 5376 Recommendations Approved
On 13 July 2018 the council resolved that: the executive be asked to consider putting in place suitable controls to restrict parking on grass verges and pathways, including the introduction of by-laws.
The purpose of this report is to determine the executive’s response to the above resolution.
Having considered the provision afforded by relevant legislation:
· If the matter to be addressed relates to regular and sustained careless parking at particular locations, then the most appropriate means of control will be through the introduction of a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO), which can be enforced by the Council’s Civil Enforcement officers.
· If the matter relates to occasional damage by a particular individual, or individuals, at a particular location, then the use of the provisions in the Highways Act 1980 may be the most appropriate means of control.
· Given the existence of the above provisions in law, it is considered unlikely that the Secretary of State will decide to take forward any application for a bylaw to address an issue with parking on verges and footways unless it can be demonstrated that such matters cannot be addressed through TROs or the existing provisions under the Highways Act 1980 or any other relevant legislation.
